I ordered them with no bark but they came thru to big for my hands and I had to rework them to get a good fit for my hands. No fault of Patricks I just shoot with very small grips compared to most people.

Those elk antler stocks on the first one are what I'd like for my 50th Flat Top 357.

Got a chance to shoot my Old Model conversion tonight and I'm glad to say it shoots as good as it looks and maybe even better with someone with younger eyes hanging on to it. The Flat Top won't get shot untill next week as my buddy is tied up until then. It took 4 shots at seven yards to line up the sights and three more just to be sure and then moved the target back to 15 yards for a pretty constant 1 1/2" groups with fliers going out to 2". I got to do a little work on the trigger yet and maybe polish out the chambers a little larger as they seem a little tight when ejecting and loading after 20 or so rounds.
